WEBVTT 1 00:00:07.840 --> 00:00:08.520 Oh , we have a squid. 2 00:00:11.080 --> 00:00:19.160 Michael says that the common name is the cockatoo squid, which is much easier to say than the genus name... 3 00:00:21.000 --> 00:00:25.600 ... Megalocranchia. I don't know, maybe he's cranky. 4 00:00:29.560 --> 00:00:32.160 Pilot, would this be possible for us to slurp? 5 00:00:34.080 --> 00:00:38.680 Watch lead, just to confirm, you want me to attempt to grab this? Yeah, let's go ahead and give it a go. Copy. 6 00:00:41.040 --> 00:00:48.720 So, we have a suction sampler, which I like to describe as being an underwater shop vac. 7 00:00:50.040 --> 00:00:55.960 But, this allows us to more easily collect these midwater samples. 8 00:00:58.120 --> 00:00:59.120 Okay. We're gonna go for a sample. 9 00:01:01.640 --> 00:01:04.360 Okay. It went in the tube. Sample's in. There is goes. 10 00:01:05.160 --> 00:01:09.840 That squid has made it into the suction sampler. Wow. Great job, pilot. 11 00:01:13.160 --> 00:01:16.040 This is the first cruise that they've had the suction sampler. 12 00:01:17.120 --> 00:01:18.080 He's so cool. 13 00:01:20.120 --> 00:01:24.520 This is not something that we would be able to sample with our mechanical arm. 14 00:01:26.040 --> 00:01:34.040 And we've also used it to sample some bottom samples because it allows them to be preserved in a little more whole state. 15 00:01:34.360 --> 00:01:42.360 Isn't that awesome? Yeah, it is. Oh my gosh. It is so cute. It is so cute. Is that like -- what does it have inside of it? I don't know.
